backport from 2.4 with all features, but only i386 is known to work,
other architectures may not even compile - feedback is welcome.
NOTE: all versions for 2.2 before 2005.03.05 have a privilege
elevation bug, you must update as soon as possible.

new configuration system supporting soft mode and sysctl and a new
(and hopefully final) location for the PaX control flags, you'll need
the binutils patch and paxctl to make use of it.

forward port from 2.4 with some extra features, but only x86 is known
to work, other architectures may not even compile - feedback is welcome.
much like 2.6 itself, PaX for 2.6 is experimental, anything can break.
NOTE: all versions for 2.6 before 2005.03.05 have a privilege
elevation bug, you must update as soon as possible.
NOTE: all versions for 2.6 before 2004.05.01 have a local kernel denial
of service bug, thanks to ChrisR for
bringing it to our attention.

adds PT_PAX_FLAGS program header support to binutils/ld, the old ELF header
marking scheme (EI_PAX) has been deprecated. note that this binutils also has support
for -z relro and -z now, their use is highly encouraged.
Special thanks to Robert Connolly/HLFS
and the Gentoo folks for fixing the testsuites.
NOTE: this version of binutils is known to produce incorrect 2.6 PaX kernels, you should use binutils 2.18 or newer.

new PaX control program when you use the PT_PAX_FLAGS marking available
in PaX patches after 2004.02.04 (highly recommended). supports alpha, i386,
ia64, mips, mips64, parisc, ppc, ppc64, sparc, sparc64 and x86_64.

obsolete version, use it for PaX patches released after 2003.02.03 or if you
want to use the EI_PAX marking in PaX patches released after 2004.02.04.
supports alpha, i386, ia64, mips, mips64, parisc, ppc, ppc64, sparc, sparc64 and x86_64.
